Chapter 160: A Banquet in the Palace
Looking at the reception banquet specially arranged for this mortal woman on the table, King Qin Guang and the others had to think deeply, and at the same time, they were also depressed in their hearts for Yan Jun's hobby of selling guanzi.
While the kings were muttering to Jiang Lan in their hearts, Jiang Lan was worried about not knowing how to deal with this kind of scene that was completely unfamiliar to her, and at the same time, the small theater in her heart was also very active.
For a while, there was a scene of a wronged soul avenging the king of Hades, and when he saw the king of Hades, he knelt down with a thud, and complained to the king of Hades miserably and asked the king of Hades to be the master.
Jiang Lan didn't dare to raise her head to observe the characters in the hall at will, but she felt that every gaze around her was as sharp and cold as an ice pick, only the feeling that the king of Hades gave her was quite peaceful and even felt a little eagerness.
Jiang Lan raised his eyes and glanced at the Hades who walked in front of him, and before he could figure out how to call himself and how to call each other, he heard that Hades seemed to have already penetrated her heart, and took the lead in speaking: "Jiang Lan Xiaoyou, this king has been waiting for a long time. ”
Hearing this statement again, Jiang Lan unconsciously raised her eyes and looked at this Hades again, the Hades in front of her are naturally different from the Hades in various film and television drama works, and it is not the strong body shape she imagined, the Hades can see that his foundation is very good, if he is younger or pays attention to dressing up, he should be a handsome uncle, wearing a dragon robe with a black background, revealing peace in majesty, and majesty in peace.
Jiang Lan's breathing became much lighter, her heartbeat increased slightly, and she was a little nervous.
"Yama, Lord Hades. Hello old man. ”
Although Jiang Lan felt that her knees were a little weak, she still held on and did not kneel, although she was subjected to many film and television scenes, she felt that it was normal to see Hades and his old man kneel. But she just stood stiff and couldn't kneel.
Can't be cowardly, she told herself, what about Hades, even if he is only a mortal to him, but his heart can't be softened!
Some people kneel on the surface, but their hearts don't, but some. On the surface, he has not knelt, but his heart has already fallen to the ground. She doesn't want to be the first kind of person, let alone the second kind of person!
Jiang Lan's expression was certain. As if he heard a bang between heaven and earth, he suddenly felt light, and when he entered the hall, the coercion that had been aggravated suddenly dissipated, and Jiang Lan's mind was suddenly clear.
"Congratulations to Jiang Lan." Hades looked at Jiang Lan with an appreciative smile. I saw that her head, which had been slightly lowered, slowly raised. The panicked look in his eyes had passed most of the time, and he couldn't help but feel relieved in his heart, and he was even more sure that he didn't recognize the wrong person.
Jiang Lan's eyes flashed with doubt, and then he seemed to understand something: "Lord Hades, may I ask who I was just now?" ”
"Jiang Lan's little friend has just made a breakthrough in his mood, congratulations." Jiang Lan's state when he first entered the door was naturally clear in his eyes, and he was still thinking about how to appease this little guest from the mortal world, but he didn't think that he didn't need to think about it. This little guest broke through the barrier in his heart by himself, and his mind became clear. He is truly the one chosen by the saint to bestow blessings.
Jiang Lan's apricot eyes widened slightly, and he glanced at Hades fixedly, and a bright smile appeared on his face while digesting this sentence: "Thank you." ”
Hades sent Jiang Lan to a seat under him, then sat back on his own head and began to speak kindly to her.
"Don't thank me, it's your own ability."
Jiang Lan smiled, but she was depressed in her heart, her "thank you" was just a kind word, okay, not thank you for bringing me so much pressure, which made me break through my mood!
But obviously there is no need to correct these things deliberately, no matter whether the old man of Hades deliberately misinterprets her meaning, or has nothing to say to praise himself, these are all unnecessary entanglements, what we really have to care about is to see Hades, whether she can go back, and Hades They have been saying that they are waiting for themselves, what is going on? What will it do to you?
Jiang Lan's temperament was a little anxious, she almost couldn't hold back and went straight to the point, but she knew her shortcomings, so she had been restraining herself, to calm down, and first see what the king of Hades and the other nine kings in the palace meant.
"Jiang Lan Xiaoyou, you came from afar, I'm afraid you haven't eaten water for a long time, and you are tired, use some hot food first, and then enjoy the singing and dancing to relax." Now that the person has been received, the king of Hades is not in a hurry, no matter what the result is, he must be treated more thoughtfully, this is a matter of the bearing of the lord of the first hall.
Jiang Lan smiled and nodded in thanks: "Thank you, Lord Hades." Jiang Lan had already swept the food on the table in front of him before, it looked normal, it was something that they could eat, so he was relieved, otherwise let her eat the food of the underworld, wouldn't that make her uncomfortable, and it would be very likely to be rude to others at that time.
Although she was not hungry at this time after a meal, of course she had to be a little more enthusiastic about such a warm hospitality, and seeing that all the kings were served by the ghosts beside her from time to time to eat something, she also took care of the host, and from time to time ate some food brought to her by the maid next to her.
As for the heart of defense? Is that thing useful in this Hades Palace, people can destroy themselves with one finger, and you still don't think too highly of yourself.
While eating, several other people except Hades also began to brush her sense of existence, some nodded indifferently at her, some raised eyebrows and smiled at her, and some introduced themselves to her, Jiang Lan felt that he would not have much friendship with these big people, and he dealt with them quite calmly, and wrote down their information one by one.
When a row of female ghosts with colorful lights walked into the hall singing and dancing, Jiang Lan was shocked to realize that in this hall, whether it was the ten palace lords or the ghosts, their appearance and clothing were no different from mortals, if there was really any difference, that is, their clothes were all antique, and even the pomp and circumstance of the banquet were like ancient times.
Jiang Lan secretly laughed at her nerves being too thick, but she couldn't be blamed for this, since the end of the world, there have been no strange things, and in the short period of time after entering the underworld, it made her feel uncomfortable everywhere, and the scene in this hall may seem normal in her subconscious.
"These female ghosts have all cultivated colorful spirit bodies, which is a rare beauty in our gray underworld. Of course. Jiang Lan Xiaoyou is from the human world, and probably feels different from us old ghosts. King Qin Guang, who was sitting at the bottom of Jiang Lan, saw Jiang Lan's curious look and explained to her with a slight smile.
Jiang Lan hurriedly said politely: "No." I also think it's beautiful.,Where can I see colorful characters in the world.,Only five-cent special effects.,This time I'm also an eye-opener.,When I go back, tell my parents about them.,It's sure to make their jaws drop.。 After Jiang Lan finished speaking, he smiled with crooked eyebrows. As if it was just a random joke.
King Qin Guang smiled: "Jiang Lan Xiaoyou is really modest, how can the beauty of the world be compared to this ghost place in the underworld, even this hot food." I, who is a prince, feel heartache when I eat it, but Jiang Lan's little friend can eat every day in the world. ”
Jiang Lan sweated in his heart, is this a foodie's resentment?
"Why? Is hot food so precious in the underworld? Jiang Lan's heart was full of doubts, these little ghosts can't go to the world. Their ten halls of Hades have great powers. What you can't get, where you can't go? It really makes her feel inexplicable, saying that you are the king of a palace, why bother with all this food?
King Qin Guang glanced at Jiang Lan, sighed and shook his head, looking too lazy to explain, which made Jiang Lan inexplicable, but she didn't really want to know about this. If the other party doesn't say it, don't say it.
After the banquet and singing and dancing, the king of Hades asked Jiang Lan, "Jiang Lan Daoyou." I don't know you have a pass in your hand? ”
Jiang Lan put down the chopsticks in his hand, nodded and said, "Yes." There was a puzzled look on his face.
"Can you give this king a look?" Hades still said unhurriedly.
Jiang Lan's heart moved slightly, this Lord Yama took the initiative to ask the earth spirit for the bronze medal given to him, should it be his old man who would give the earth spirit the bronze medal? Thinking so, she hurriedly took the bronze medal out of her spatial ring, thought about it, and handed it to the acolyte serving next to her, and motioned for her to present the bronze medal to Hades.
Hades picked up the bronze medal and only glanced at it a few times, as if confirming something.
Jiang Lan said with a little expectation: "This thing belongs to one of my contract earth spirits, I don't know if Lord Hades knows its origin?" "Actually, what she really wants to ask is, did you give this thing to the earth spirit, otherwise why is it your dungeon pass, not the heaven pass, the dragon palace pass or something.
The king of Hades smiled slightly, looked at Jiang Lan's eyes and said: "I know a little bit about it, at the beginning, that saint asked for a teleportation jade talisman and this pass from me, saying that it was useful, and told this king that when the earth changes greatly, his heirs will bring the spirit of the five elements to the underworld through the teleportation jade talisman, and they will rely on this pass." ”
Hades' words not only surprised Jiang Lan very much, but also evoked the memories of the other nine kings, they knew about the arrival of the saint at that time, but they were not clear about what the saint talked to the king of Hades alone, after all, the king of Yama is the head of the ten halls of Hades, his authority is very important in the hearts of the other nine kings, and they don't dare to be too presumptuous in some aspects, and this matter about the saint is one of them.
Now I heard that Jiang Lan turned out to be the descendant of that saint, and even faintly seemed to have some kind of mission to care about the earth, and one by one I couldn't help but glance at Jiang Lan, I can't help but see her past life and future life clearly, where did such an ordinary mortal girl get this kind of luck from?
The king of Hades did not mention the saint again, and after returning the pass order to Jiang Lan through the ghost, he took out a black token out of nowhere, got up and walked to Jiang Lan's table, and handed the token to Jiang Lan with his own hands: "This Hades order, you take it." ”
When all the princes saw that Yan Jun was going to hand over the Hades Order to Jiang Lan, they couldn't help but widen their eyes, but then they returned to their normal demeanor, without saying a word, and they didn't mean to interfere with Hades.
Jiang Lan hurriedly stood up, and in surprise took this black and cold-looking token from the hand of the king of Hades, and his hand was heavy, and a cool breath came to her bones, which made her shiver involuntarily.
Hades smiled lightly and reminded her, "Run your Chaos True Element, and the token won't hurt you." Seeing Jiang Lan's appearance, the king of Hades was not surprised, but he just withdrew his hand and said this casually.
Jiang Lan smiled very embarrassedly, hurriedly transported the true yuan to his hand, and carefully looked at the palm-sized Hades Decree in his hand, which looked like an ordinary token of unknown material, but Jiang Lan didn't dare to underestimate it at all, when he heard its name, it made people feel tall, not to mention that it also had the role of calling on ghost generals and ghost soldiers.
With such a token in her hand, she is equivalent to carrying a ghost general and a ghost soldier with her, and thinking about it makes her feel incredible, such a big benefit, such a good thing, has actually arrived in her hands.
Of course, the important thing is not the thing, this thing is quite a token, it is a token of Lord Yama, which represents the attitude of Lord Yama and his old man towards her Jiang Lan!
This Hades Order is undoubtedly a good thing, but how to use it she has to ask clearly, grasp a good degree, it is not just a dead thing that can be used casually, it doesn't matter if it is bad, it is not like her space, it completely belongs to her, how to use it can not hinder others, and there is no need to worry about improper use to attract other people's emotional reactions, this token is a good thing, but it is not easy to use!
What if you use too much and get annoyed by the token owner? And what the price of using this token and what kind of help can be obtained, etc., these are all things that she needs to understand clearly.
"Lord Hades, how do I use this token, do I need to drip blood to recognize the Lord?" Jiang Lan asked a little embarrassed.
Hades smiled: "You can drop it or not, when you use it, inject the true yuan into it, and you can use the token by saying the token." Of course, it is better to drop blood and recognize the Lord, so that you will not lose this item, but if you don't want to, you can not drop it, this token can only be used by you, and others will immediately withdraw this order when they use our underworld. ”
Jiang Lan heard this, and immediately said: "Of course, it is better to recognize the Lord with blood!" "Hades has already said so, if she doesn't take the initiative to choose to recognize the lord with blood, wouldn't she be suspected of disliking the Hades order, then of course she can't let the Hades master misunderstand, Jiang Lan thought so, and immediately gave this Hades order to drip blood to recognize the lord.
Seeing Jiang Lan so knowledgeable, Hades was satisfied, and he smiled: "You can use this token at will, you don't need to worry too much, as for how you want to send those ghost soldiers and ghost generals summoned with Hades' order, whether you can make them willing to send them for you depends on your own ability." ”
Jiang Lan nodded again and again to show that she understood, it turned out that if she had a token, she still had to look at herself, but this time Jiang Lan put down her mind a little, and she asked Hades for some specific usage, and finally had a little bottom in her heart, and knew how to summon ghost generals and ghost soldiers according to her own requirements.
She has a new layer of worry, if the ghost generals and ghost soldiers she summoned not only do not cooperate, but also make trouble for her, how can it be good? She asked Hades about this question again, and Hades took the trouble to tell her: "If you are disobedient, you just need to activate the Hades order and let them come back, they can't resist the Hades order."
